A tag has been placed onXue Liu requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done undersection G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguouscopyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy fromhttps://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~xueliu/site/bio.html,https://mila.quebec/en/person/xue-liu/, andhttps://wiki.santafe.edu/index.php/Search_and_Decision_Making_Speakers. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source ofinformation, but not as a source ofsentences. This part is crucial:say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violatorswill beblocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then youmust verify that externally by one of the processes explained atWikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, seeWikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look atWikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a questionhere.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you maycontest the nomination byvisiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line withWikipedia's policies and guidelines.voorts (talk/contributions)20:32, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Chengming Hu! Your additions toXue Liu have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in thepublic domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under asuitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, seeWikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoidcopyright andplagiarism issues.

• You can only copy/translate asmall amount of a source. You must mark what you take as a direct quotation with doublequotation marks (") and cite the source using aninline citation. Read about this atWikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See alsoHelp:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you mustput all informationin your own words and structure, in properparaphrase. Following the source's words too closely can createcopyright problems, so it is not permitted here; seeWikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still asked to cite your sources toverify the information and to demonstrate that the content is notoriginal research.
• We have strict guidelines on the usage ofcopyrighted images.Fair use images must meet all ten of thenon-free content criteria to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia,all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
• Ifyou own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, youmay be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, therelease of content must be irrevocable,to the world, into either thepublic domain (PD) or under asuitably free and compatible copyright license. Please seeWikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• Also note thatWikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described atWikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See alsoHelp:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Our policy requires that people who persistently do not must beblocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.Whpq (talk)21:05, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
